The weka (新西兰秧鸡), which live on the ground, had just returned after disappearing for a long time. Many of our neighbours, who did not have fenced(围栅栏的) vegetable gardens, grew to dislike the birds ▲ . We were lucky to have a fence around our vegetable garden, so we never had this problem. In fact, we used to feed food to the cheeky weka which came near the house. However, this peaceful time was short. They grew wilder and would come inside our house, make things out of order and hide behind furniture until we drove them out. When we bought two chickens, the fun grew. We bought a step-on(踏板式的) feeder for the times when we were away from home so the hens could feed themselves. But soon the weka learned about the skil. They would wait until the hens left the feeder and quickly stood on the bar and helped themselves. We were surprised at the weka􀆳s cleverness and had to give up the idea. Once when my family and I visited Wainui Fals(瀑布), we stopped at a restaurant. I was shocked by the bravery of a weka that jumped up onto a table. It put its beak(鸟喙) into a tal glass with a little iced coffee left in the bottom. The weka drank up the yummy drink and I could not help but think that it would be even more excited after a little caffeine!
